How green are you? Take the quiz!

Ever wonder how your eco-friendly steps might add up? We aren’t talking about a calculator here, but looking at you as a person who has chosen a greener path. Do you think you are greener than many of your friends? Want to challenge them to thing about being greener?

Take the green quiz Recently I took the “How Green are You Quiz” on Practically Green and was surprised by my results. I was also surprised at how the questions got me to think about the ways I’m NOT yet as green as I could be.
The quiz asks you about your green habits and lifestyle, like if you recycle, if you compost, if you ride your bike to work or school. It also asks questions about where you live like how well is your house insulated and if you use Energy Star appliances.

After you have completed the survey you receive a result that measured your greenness on a scale of 1-10, and then identifies you as can vary from Barely Green to Wickedly Green. How did I do? I am…
Solidly Green with a level 6 out of 10!

Where I’m not so green I realized there are a few areas where I can be greener. For one, I don’t compost and, having a garden, I really should. Another is that while I hardly use a drycleaner, I can locate an eco-friendly dry cleaner for when I do. I am also considering having a home energy audit after taking the quiz. Plus, I realized that I have a huge stack of cloth napkins that I forget to use. I’ll be putting those out on the counter in a nice basket so they are readily available to use instead of paper napkins and paper towels.

How green are you?

Take the quiz over at Practically Green and come back and let me know how you did!  Are there areas you could be greener? What areas are simply out of your control? Did the quiz motivate you to make any changes? I can’t wait to see what you learn about your green ways.
